The Collective Design House Leaf Tongs

Because these tongs are brass-plated, they are best suited for serving rather than prolonged contact with highly acidic foods. We recommend using them to toss and plate your salad just before serving to maintain the integrity of the finish.

To preserve the metallic luster, hand wash the tongs with mild soap and warm water, then dry them immediately with a soft cloth. Avoid using abrasive sponges or harsh detergents, which can scratch or dull the plating over time.

Yes, their sturdy construction allows them to grip heavier items like meats or roasted vegetables securely. However, they are designed primarily as elegant serving implements, so they perform best when used for plating rather than heavy-duty cooking tasks.

The leaf design offers a surprisingly effective grip for noodles and greens. The textured surface of the leaves helps hold onto slippery ingredients, making them both a functional and sculptural choice for your table.

No, these tongs are not dishwasher safe. The high heat and harsh chemicals in dishwasher detergents will strip the brass plating and damage the finish, so hand washing is required.
